Portable speaker system for outdoor umbrella

A portable speaker system for an outdoor umbrella having a shaft, comprising:

• a portable housing which comprises a first housing body and a second housing body defining a mounting slot when said first and second housing bodies are coupled with each other, wherein said mounting slot has a size for said shaft of said outdoor umbrella fitting therewithin;
• a detachable locker comprising a first locker provided at said first housing body and a second locker which is provided at said second housing body and is releasably locked with said first locker to detachably lock up said second housing body with said first housing body for securely mounting said portable housing around said shaft of said outdoor umbrella;
• an audio device which comprises two or more speakers supported in said first and second housing bodies of said portable housing respectively and an audio input operatively coupling with said speaker such that when said audio input sends an audio signal to said speakers, said speakers are adapted for producing audio sound as an additional function for said outdoor umbrella;
• and
• an adjustable retainer for adjusting the size of said mounting slot for said shaft of said outdoor umbrella, wherein said adjustable retainer comprises a retention arm, having a pusher surface facing towards said mounting slot, slidably mounted said first housing body and an adjustable locker controllably driving said retention arm at a position that when said retention arm is driven towards mounting slot, said pusher surface is arranged for biasing against an outer surface of said shaft of said outdoor umbrella until said shaft thereof being fitted at said mounting slot so as to substantially mount said portable housing at said outdoor umbrella, wherein said adjustable locker comprises a compression spring supported in said first housing body for applying a pushing force against said retention arm so as to normally push said pusher surface towards said mounting slot;
• wherein said audio input comprises an auxiliary input provided on said portable housing for communicatively connecting to a portable music player to receive said audio signal therefrom, such that said audio signal is transmitted to said speakers for music broadcasting;
• wherein said audio device further comprises a control panel, which is provided at said portable housing, comprising a control circuitry operatively connecting to said speakers to selectively operate and control said speakers and a display screen electrically connected to said control circuitry for displaying an operation status thereof;
• wherein said control panel comprises a radio broadcasting circuit for receiving radio wave as said audio signal, such that said control panel transmits said audio signal to said speakers for radio broadcasting;
• wherein said first and second housing bodies are two identical half circular bodies pivotally coupling with each other via a pivot hinge, wherein each of said first and second housing bodies has two biasing surfaces arranged when said biasing surfaces of said first housing body engage with said biasing surfaces of said second housing body respectively, said portable housing is formed to have a donut shape and to define said mounting slot at a center of said portable housing;
• wherein said pivot hinge comprises a pivot shaft provided at said first housing body and a detachable coupler which is extended from said second housing body and is detachably coupled with said pivot shaft to pivotally connect said second housing body with said first housing body;
• wherein said audio device further comprises an electric plug which is extended from said corresponding biasing surface of the first housing body and is electrically coupled with said speaker thereat, and an electric socket which is extended from said corresponding biasing surface of said second housing body and is electrically coupled with said speaker thereat, wherein said electric plug is electrically coupled to said electric socket when said first and second housing bodies are coupled with each other to electrically connect said speakers with each other.
